Olivia’s passion for affordable housing is at the core of her work, especially in her leadership of Massimino Impact Housing; the division is focused on creating high-quality, affordable housing solutions. In this role, she leads efforts to develop properties that address the urgent need for affordable housing in key urban markets, focusing on the missing middle—a demographic of middle-income families often priced out of desirable locations. Under Olivia’s leadership, Massimino Impact Housing is committed to improving communities and providing sustainable housing that fosters long-term social and economic impact.
She believes in creating communities that are not just places to live but spaces that residents can embrace and truly call home. Her approach to development is grounded in a commitment to design, creativity, and community impact. She ensures that each project improves the surrounding neighborhood while addressing the pressing housing needs of working families.
Before dedicating herself full-time to Massimino Development, Olivia was involved in numerous entrepreneurial ventures alongside her husband, Ben Massimino, while raising their three children. Her journey into real estate development was born from her passion for design and her vision to engage in creative development. She relishes the opportunity to transform a raw piece of land into a thriving community, where every challenge presents an opportunity to enhance the surrounding environment and build something unique.
Olivia’s ability to navigate these challenges with creative problem-solving and strategic foresight continues to drive the success of Massimino Development and Massimino Impact Housing. Her leadership fosters strong partnerships, fuels the growth of the business, and ensures that each new project reflects a commitment to excellence, sustainability, and the long-term well-being of the communities she serves.
